Reverse Confetti Countdown to Confetti - Day 2

Hello there!  It's day two of the Countdown to Confetti at Reverse Confetti!  This might be one of my favorite releases ever!  All of the products that you see over the next few days will be available in the Reverse Confetti store and at your favorite retailers on January 8th!   

Today, we are showing off the new Poppies stamp set and coordinating Poppies Confetti Cuts!  For my first card, I started off by watercoloring a piece of watercolor paper with Distress Ink ink Wild Honey.  I cut the panel down to 4" x 5.25" and added a strip of patterned paper to the left side of the panel.  Then, I stamped the Poppies in black ink and filled them in with three shades of orange ink and two shades of green ink.  I adhered them down with a glue pen and splattered on gold metallic watercolor over everything.

After the watercolor dried, I stamped a sentiment from the new Big Heart Sentiments stamp set and diecut it with the coordinating dies.  I popped that up in the center of the panel, and added a tiny clay heart as punctuation for my sentiment.  To finish off the card, I popped the panel up on an A2 card base with foam tape.

For my second card, I started off by diecutting a piece of patterned paper with the Stitched Rays Cover  Panel (which I belive was recently retired).  Over top of that, I added a horizontal strip of contrasting patterned paper.  Then, I used the Celebrate Tag to serve as a backdrop for my sentiment.  The large sentiment is another from the new Big Heart Sentiments stamp set, and the smaller sentiment is from the Poppies stamp set.  This time, I stamped the Poppies in shades of yellow.

I finished off the tag with some jute twine and a black diecut heart along with some gel pen accents.

That's all for me today!  Be sure to hop along with the rest of the team and our special guests this month!  Comment along the way for your chance to win a Reverse Confetti gift certificate!  I hope you will come back tomorrow to see more of the new release!
